Harry, a good article that should be explored further.

When I meet or hear a black person who is rigidly racist I have to think
about what they must have gone thru in their life to turn them thus. I then
silently thank god for the black men who have risen above the resentment and
hate. They have had a positive impact on us.

When I hear a Liberal who is foaming at the mouth I have a hard time
understanding what they have gone thru. Nor does their retoric provide any
solutions to the real life problems they are protesting against.

The marine that went balistic at the poor man and woman who were peacefully
demonstrating I can understand because I have been thru some of the same
history. Thousands were killed needlessly in Vietnam because of POLITICS in
this country. It's starting again. A war that is nessasary for the long
term safety of the world is being turned into a political football. That's
treasonous behaviour provided they understand the necessity for the war.

There is the problem, rising above the "Bush hate" to understand the
reasoning. I can see it because I have been paying attention. It was
easier for me because I wasn't a "Hater" and by temperment I am a person who
asks why. The problem is Saudi Arabia but the solution is complicated
because we can't endanger the worlds oil supplies.
